B&M Retail stock (ISIN GB0001826634) closed at 246.20 pence on the London Stock Exchange on September 21, 2026, gaining 4.68 percent from the previous session. The rebound followed a 4.4 percent decline on September 18, while the next reported results date is listed as November 11, 2026.
Profit rises to GBP 196 million
According to Ad-hoc-News in its September 22, 2026 market summary, the latest reported half-year figures showed revenue of GBP 2.93 billion and net profit of GBP 196 million, compared with GBP 123 million in the prior-year semester. That represents a 59.35 percent year-on-year increase in net profit.
The same reported period included adjusted operating profit of GBP 860 million, an operating margin of 15.51 percent and half-year earnings per share of GBP 0.21 versus a consensus estimate of GBP 0.20. The figures give the November reporting date a specific test: revenue growth, margin development and the company outlook will determine whether the stronger profit trend is continuing.
Stock remains below yearly high
The September 21 close remained 11.6 percent below the 52-week high of 268.80 pence and above the 52-week low of 154.00 pence. The price therefore sat in the upper half of its annual range, but had not reclaimed the high.
Valuation expectations remain wide. Ad-hoc-News reported on September 21, 2026 that a consensus overview cited an average 12-month target of GBP 2.18 against a reference price of GBP 1.86, with targets ranging from GBP 1.40 to GBP 2.90 across 19 analysts. A separate valuation summary cited an average target of 401 pence, with a range from 207 pence to 600 pence, showing how differently the available estimates frame the stock.
November results set the next test
The next scheduled reporting date is November 11, 2026, according to Ad-hoc-News. The key comparison is clear: the latest half-year profit of GBP 196 million improved by GBP 73 million from GBP 123 million, while the share price remained below the 268.80 pence yearly high.
246.20 pence remains the reference
B&M Retail stock closed at 246.20 pence on the London Stock Exchange on September 21, 2026, after the 4.68 percent daily gain. The next dated operating checkpoint is the November 11, 2026 results announcement.
